I don't write much on this blog anymore. With my Facebook page, that is pretty much where I am most of the time!
I was looking on this blog and realized I never put up a post about my dog Mari. I got Mari when I saw him on Petfinder.com (just like how I found Treif). I had also seen a lot of other dogs I liked, but Mari's foster mom was the only one that responded right away and with regularity. I took that as a sign he was the dog for me (I tend to think the easier things turn out to be, the more it was meant to be).
So I picked him up in Toledo in November, the weekend before Thanksgiving. And now it is April already, and I can't remember what life was like without him. He is so entertaining. He is still having trouble getting along with my cat Cricket, but it isn't too bad. He also has a problem with peeing on the carpet occasionally. It is few and far between, but I am not good at discovering it until it is almost too late. So I bought a blacklight and regularly check the carpet for any "new" problems.
Is sometimes wonder why someone gave him up. Maybe they couldn't afford him anymore, maybe they didn't want even one accident on their rugs, maybe he ran away... I will never know. But I am glad he is in my life.
